The Young and the Restless (Y&R) spoilers recap for Tuesday, October 4, teases that Diane Jenkins (Susan Walters) and Tucker McCall (Trevor St. John) will get trapped together when Victor Newman (Eric Braeden) arrives. Victoria Newman (Amelia Heinle) will also fear a wildcard now that Tucker is back in town, so let’s talk about what’s in store.
At Newman Enterprises, Victor will reveal that he’s secured the financing, so he’ll think they should pounce as soon as Chancellor-Winters goes public.
Victoria and Nick Newman (Joshua Morrow) will offer updates on Tucker’s return to Genoa City, so that’ll bring concerns about him working behind the scenes with Devon Hamilton (Bryton James) or Jill Abbott (Jess Walton).
Nick will worry that Tucker is a complication they can’t afford, but Victoria will refuse to back out and will think they can outmaneuver Tucker.
Victor will agree before Victoria notes that Nate Hastings (Sean Dominic) is their ace in the hole and can warn them about any potential hazards.
Meanwhile, Nikki Newman (Melody Thomas Scott) will talk to Phyllis Summers (Michelle Stafford) about the possible connection between Tucker and the Bentley that Diane was being chauffeured around in.
After Nikki suggests Victor’s people will find something, she’ll feel confident they can prove Diane is lying about being a changed woman.
Later, Nikki will hint that they have a new piece of the puzzle thanks to Victor’s team.
At Crimson Lights, Elena Dawson (Brytni Sarpy) will run into Nate and admit that something’s changed in him.
This destructive, power-hungry side of Nate will bother Elena, but he’ll feel like she’s not seeing his point of view.
After Devon walks in, he’ll sense the tension and speak to Elena in private.
Elena will insist all Nate cares about is making his mark, so she’ll refuse to accept how he’s handling his feelings.
Devon won’t understand since he thought things were improving now that Nate asked for another chance.
It’ll leave Devon thinking there’s more to the story, but Elena will claim she has to dash off for work.
At Chancellor-Winters, Nate will bump into Esther Valentine (Kate Linder) and catch up with her ahead of her meeting with Devon.
Soon after, Devon will offer Esther the receptionist position that just became available, so Esther will enthusiastically accept the job.
Once Esther leaves, Devon will fish for answers about Nate and Elena’s problems.
Nate will act like this is about him leaving medicine and will insist he won’t let personal issues stand in the way of what he’s trying to accomplish.
After Victoria summons Nate, he’ll meet with her and learn that Tucker is back in GC.
Since Devon didn’t say anything, Victoria will assume that either Devon doesn’t know yet or Nate is being kept out of the loop.
Nate will wonder if Tucker found out about the plan to go public, so Victoria will admit she had the same thought.
Once Victoria says it’s imperative for Nate to find out more, she’ll warn that a wildcard in the mix could change the entire game.
At the Abbott house, Allie Nguyen (Kelsey Wang) will gush over the photos Noah Newman (Rory Gibson) took of her and suggest that the photographer might’ve really liked his subject.
Noah will tease that photographer loved Allie before going in for a kiss.
Next on Tuesday’s Y&R episode, Kyle Abbott (Michael Mealor) and Summer Newman-Abbott (Allison Lanier) will appear.
Allie will get a history lesson on Tucker before Jack overhears and insists the less Allie knows about that guy, the better.
Noah will mention his idea of having an afterparty at his club tonight, so everyone will get on board.
Although Summer will be nervous about leaving Marchetti and Harrison Abbott (Kellen Enriquez) for her Costa Rica honeymoon with Kyle, Jack will offer plenty of reassurance.
In Tucker’s suite at the GCAC, Diane will barge in and complain about all the helicopter insanity.
Tucker will act like he did Diane a favor since her outrage was genuine – making her seem like just another horrified guest.
Diane will warn Tucker not to contact her again since she satisfied her end of the agreement.
After Diane talks about supplying Tucker with info on Ashley Abbott (Eileen Davidson) and the Abbott clan, she won’t see what he could possibly need from her now that he’s also in town.
Tucker won’t be willing to let Diane stop spying for him and will remind her that her progress with Kyle was his doing.
Since Diane’s crimes were more egregious, her ability to overcome her obstacles will give Tucker hope to do the same.
Diane will admit she’s become protective of the Abbotts and will consider them her family now.
That’ll make Diane push for answers about what exactly Tucker wants from them.
Tucker will claim that he only wants forgiveness and acceptance – mostly from Ashley.
However, Diane will worry that all her hard work will be for nothing if someone puts the pieces together and connects them.
After Diane once again pushes Tucker to reconsider using her as his spy, there’ll be a knock at the door.
Victor will be on the other side, so he’ll insist he knows McCall is in there. Diane will look panicked since she’ll be stuck inside Tucker’s suite with him.
As other Y&R news comes in, we’ll bring you details. The Young and the Restless spoilers say Diane has more tight spots ahead of her, so stay tuned.
